Personality

His personality is a combination between all the Combaticons, but his personality seems to resemble Brawl's personality the most.

Bruticus is aggressive, ruthless, dim-witted, loyal and brutish. He follows any order from his leader without any question.

Powers and Abilities

Bruticus possesses tremendous strength and power, enough to lift up to 250 tons and smash a suspension bridge with one punch. He also possesses enormous durability, making him nearly invulnerable to most forms of blunt trauma, artillery and radiation. When the Combaticons combine to form Bruticus, Bruticus uses Onslaught's sonic stun gun, which has enough power to destroy a hillside with a single blast. He can also use Vortex's razor-blades as a shield, or to slice an Autobot to pieces.

Bruticus in the Transformers: G1 cartoon

Transformers (1984) - Bruticus appears in the original series, voiced by Roger C. Carmel. He was created by Starscream, when Starscream had placed the personality components of five renegade Decepticons inside five old military veichles who had been on an island for decades. He then created the Combaticons. Starscream tested their loyalty by ordering them to capture a few transformers, and later when Megatron, the Constructicons and a few other Decepticons attacked Starscream and the Combaticons, the Constructicons combined into Devastator to defeat them, but the Combaticons combined into Bruticus and overpowered Devastator and Megatron, and Starscream took over as the leader of the Decepticons. His glory was short-lived, however, because the Stunticons had arrived and formed Menasor and took Bruticus down with a surprise attack from behind, and Starscream and the Combaticons were banished from Earth and put on an asteroid in space. In the next episode, Starscream abandoned the Combaticons, and the Combaticons headed to Cybertron, overpowered Shockwave and took control over the planet. Thirsting for revenge, Onslaught reprogrammed the space bridge on Cybertron to pull Earth towards the Sun, in order to destroy every transformer there. When the Autobots and Decepticons heard about this, they made an alliance and teleported to Cybetron. The Combaticons combined into Bruticus, and Starscream told them that they could only defeat him by blasting the three weak spots on his back. They did, and Optimus and Megatron agreed to destroy Bruticus, however Megatron faked Bruticus' death, and Megatron and Starscream reprogrammed Bruticus to only be loyal to Megatron. Then he continued to serve Megatron in later episodes.
